43226-3. We promise you can put non-country-style magazines in this holder, although we sort of imagine it chock full of things like Spur-N-Saddle,Yarn Jamboree, and 1,000 Chicken Stencils! Measures 2’ x 9” x 26”H.

43551-26. The man bent over his chair/ An office man of sorts. The day was green./ They said, “You have a blue chair/ It does not play things as we swear.”/ The man replied, “Things as you swear/ Are changed upon the blue chair.”/ And they said then, “But play you must/ A tune beyond us, yet ourselves/ A tune upon the blue chair/ Of things exactly as we swear.”

Price drop!
43096-22. Back in the day, “adjustable” didn’t necessarily mean 100 different knobs and switches for a bespoke fit; it meant “you can raise or lower the seat by spinning it,” and such is the case with this sturdy war horse. Ah, the simplicity of the ages.

43338-1 through -28. Tired of the same old rectangular desks? Go jellybean and get one (or several) of these curvy classroom tables instead! The convex right sides nestle the curved left sides such that you could create an undulating snake chain of desks if you really want to go wild. Each desk measures approximately 44 x 38 x 28 ½”H.

We have a very strong selection of file cabinets in a variety of colors and styles. Photo represents a random sampling of available items as stock changes regularly.Please note: most file cabinets we have do not come with keys. If we receive the cabinet with keys, we tape them to the top or side of the cabinet. If you find a locking cabinet without keys, don’t despair—just tell any locksmith the alphanumeric code around the keyhole, and they can cut a new key for you for a nominal charge. UW Surplus does not accept returns of file cabinets that you thought had keys but did not.

Pity the forgotten typewriter cart from a semi-bygone age, so sturdy, so eager to please, so currently misunderstood (no, it’s not a child’s version of a dining table … unless you want it to be). With their left and right drop-sides, they’re perfect for laptop projects while you’re on the couch, for instance, and will prevent you from frying your lap. And nobody enjoys a fried lap.

43344-20, -21, and -22. The great thing about this trio is that one can be a hassock, one can be an ottoman, and one can be a foot stool, and then we’re all happy. Burgundy fabric over wood legs. Each item measures 22 x 26 x 19”H.

42657-47. This would be your steampunky dentist’s stool if you had a steampunky dentist, but considering the dental tools a steampunky dentist might use, I suppose we’re glad this is all in the conceptual stages.

43168-38 through -46. These high-style wood & chrome stacking chairs are more comfortable than they may appear. With a decent dust cloth and some polish, they’ll spiff up even your office with the hang-in-there kitty poster and dead fern. We promise. Actually, we’ve been meaning to tell you about the fern.

42799-5. That’s maybe not the best name I’ve ever given a piece of furniture. It’s more of a rich toffee chair with a butterscotch wood-grain laminate desk surface … a deep caramel featuring faux oak from the chocolate mocha forest. Also: it’s brown.

42934-16, -18, and -19. This trio of tall chairs features fabric seats, wood backs, and metal frames and stands 44”-high (seat backs). With a recovering of the fabric portions, you’ll have some striking pub-height/ counter-height chairs.

[In this photo: 43259-1]. We’ve received several this week—green(ish), brown(ish), and grey(ish). Or: aqua(sih), toffee(ish), and gun-metal(ish). Desk in photo measures 30” x 5’ x 29”H. The desk has a hook underneath it, and we realized it’s a vestige of some old ideas about who uses a desk like this: it’s a “purse hook.” But it’s just as good for knapsacks or reusable lunch totes, etc.

43353-1 and -6. Each of these matching couches is in great shape and features a subdued dark grey & black checked fabric pattern and wood arm accents. They work much better horizontally than vertically, but who are we to judge?

Back in stock!
Among the first arrivals from the Lander Hall demolition project are these incredibly nice wood framed bulletin/ tackboards that each feature a carved, Husky-purple-ized “UW” in the top center. The photo shows front and back—boards may be installed using the bevel-boards on their backs or via convention drill/ hook means. Your semi-humble UW Surplus item writer has two of these boards at his desk and can attest they’re extra spiffy.
